I have been teasing this series for a very long time...and that's because it took a VERY LONG TIME to make...a twenty episode retrospective on every Sega developed arcade racing game in 3D! Because whether its retro gaming or modern pc gaming...Sega is the KING of the arcade racing genre! So buckle up and get ready for a retrogaming ride!
THE RULES FOR INCLUSION: 1) It must have had an arcade release (So no Sega GT) 2) It must be in 3D (Bye Bye Outrunners, etc etc) and 3) you MUST be racing against an opponent and not just a timer (sorry Crazy Taxi, Wild Riders)

Up First: Sega Race TV! This is Yu Suzuki's FINAL GAME with Sega before he left the company entirely and started Y's Net and produced Shenmue 3. He was working on three games before he left...one being Shenmue Online...and we all know how that worked out!
But Sega Race TV is one wild game. It's like a mix up between Daytona Racing USA and OutRun 2 with a tiny bit of Mario Kart / Sega and Sonic All Stars Racing mixed in! Which means you know its going to be one of the best racing video games around! Oh and maybe a tiny bit of Crazy Taxi for good measure...feels very Dreamcast like! It feels like an AM2 racing game but it was technically made by AM Plus.
This runs on the Sega Lindberg Yellow Arcade PCB, so it's really just PC Gaming in a box.

The game themeing is fun but as a racer I think it falls slightly short considering it's a Yu Suzuki title. It's got those really wide corners everywhere with no run-off areas and very rubber bandy opponent cars so it feels a bit easy when you win and RNG when you lose.
See to me that's just extra "arcadey" feeling and its about giving you the room to tear around the track
Ooooh, excellent idea for a video series. I'll be keeping my eyes peeled for these!
Every Wednesday through June 2023 :)
If you want a racing game like this on home console, there's 'Jimmie Johnson's Anything with an Engine' on PS3, Xbox 360 or Wii.It has similar stadium setup but vehicle selection is even crazier because, well, you race anything with an engine.
Haha would you believe I’ve never played that
Awesome idea for a series. Completely forgot about this game. I always loved how much personality Sega’s arcade racers had.
Itll be a fun series. And a long one. 22 episodes...maybe a few bonus ones here and there
Sega Race TV is one of few games that teknoparrot cannot emulate 100% accurate, but its a good and interesting game
The sound is slightly off
@@VideoGameEsoterica yes! and teknoparrot developers already said this gonna stay like that hahaha
I guess we've just gotta be happy with what we get
How have I never heard of this? Looks awesome haha
Now you've heard of it...homework assignment! Go play it and report back :)
@Video Game Esoterica dang... this looks awesome but like the OP nene seen it in a UK arcade. Will this be doable on the MiSTer eventually???
No MiSTer. It’s just basically a PC in a box arcade system so it will just run on PC with some trickery
This game is RIDICULOUS. I've been playing it since it was made available on TeknoParrot's Patreon and I love how "Hyper-Japan-view-of-USA" it is.
It feels like the concept of America someone would hold if they'd never actually seen America...just heard "tales of"
@@VideoGameEsoterica Haha right... if they only watched Robocop and Michael Bay movies
stop looking over my shoulder. I was watching Rococop last night!
I already love OutRun, but man, this game looks amazingly fun, too! I can't wait to try it out!
Def play it. If you love OutRun you’ll love this
This game looks absolutely amazing. Going to have to check it out this weekend.
BTW I just recently found your channel and wanted to tell you it's absolutely fantastic.
Glad you found it! Curious how you did? Always trying to keep data around to better understand how people found me
@@VideoGameEsoterica One of the Mister related accounts I follow on twitter linked one of your videos. I don't remember which account it was.
That’s info enough. Appreciate you letting me know. Well welcome! New MiSTer video tomorrow! Well every Thursday from now until forever I assume
Sega were pure legends in the arcade racing genre. It's a shame that they never touch it anymore these days.
They kind of do though. The newest game in this series will be from 2019 and it’s legit p
incredible series that you're doing bro. my favourite part of sega race tv is the commentary from jake patterson - he has some cool dance moves too!
Series should be a fun time! Minimum of 21 weeks to go but I always end up adding bonus episodes so!
The intro sounds a LOT like Jungle Boogie by Kool and the Gang. I guess that's why it never came home lol
Haha def has some similarities
Yu Suzuki is truly a master of Japanese-Americana. He makes America seem like a magical fantasy land in a unique new way every single time.
This game is like Evel Knievel meets a blacksploitation film
That’s an apt mix up actually. All the flags…def Evel vibes
Black Dynamite?
The strangeness reminds me a lot of the F-Zero AX/GX TV segments
That’ll be showing up on the playlist eventually :)
Wow this game looks sick. Never seen it anywhere. F-Zero / Outrun / Daytona / Mario Kart had a baby!
Haha pretty much a mix of them all!
The choice of cars are unique, but Yu Suzuki has a campy lifestyle with an eye for awkwardness.
It’s def a vibe and I love it
I need to find a way to play this! I absolutely love Sega racing games. It seems like they were all drenched in fun without a single care for the conventional.
It’s pretty easy to get going but if you need help just join my discord
Wow, this game would be good on the Switch if Cruis'n Blast can come out and be a success then this is a no-brainer. Bring out the arcade version of Outrun 2 while you're at it!
Sega will never do it. They hate us and they don’t want us to be happy. How is the new Cruis’n btw? Worth it?
@@VideoGameEsoterica yes worth it, but misses some of the bizarre yet cool Sega personality.
I’ll have to check it out
4:36 some Space Channel 5 reference ? haha
Hi my friend. I've been playing this game on Teknoparrot on the last weeks and it is very cool in deed
Glad you are enjoying it!
@@VideoGameEsoterica its a fun one 👍
For sure
Video so fresh it is from 2023!
What do you use for control when emulating racing games? Massive part of the Arcade experience was the wheel and force feed for me growing up
haha I rescheduled this series and moved it up because I wanted to start it. I have a wheel, but I sometimes use a Series controller as well. Depends on how much setup I want to deal with
Kinda' reminds me of Cruisn'Blat. Must be the boost mechanic.
I do love a good boost mechanic
Does this mean you'll be covering F-Zero AX? 😁
I will :) can't leave that out!
I got to try out a real FZero AX machine at a con earlier this year and getting thrown about the cockpit while turning is an experience I'll never forget. Definitely hop in one if you get the chance
I played it once years ago. Was a great time. I don’t love F-Zero but I enjoyed that one
Beautiful looking game it is for sure VGE. I have to admit, I really want to play this. I looks so cool. 8^)
Anthony...
Definitely play it. Tons of fun to be had
I do love teknoparrot it's just it can be a pain in the bottom sometimes to setup correctly. Love Sega's shiny graphics!!
It’s def not an elegant program but at least we have it
One of the most fun and absurd racers but I’m totally up for it, as you rightly said it’s like Suzuki san was given total “Carte Blanche” on this one and went to hell with it!!🤪👏👌
So sad this never got a port and I’ve yet to find a way to play this on TP full screen with an hd wrapper.
Luckily I got to play this a lot on the arcade and if I’m honest if I had the coinage and space I’d probably pickup a single player arcade cabinet.
Oh well I can dream!!😅
Will look foward to all this series from you and thanks as always VGE!!
Yes it seems to just run in windowed mode at its original resolution sadly. But better than nothing!
@@VideoGameEsoterica Wait really? I've ran this one at 1080p full screen before. UI elements don't scale at all so everything is stuck in the upper left corner of the screen while the game is rendered in widescreen
Maybe the performance has regressed with updates and I was unable to get it out of its native res
So excited for this series! I really wish Sega would rerelease all their classic racing games in one mega-collection, but car licensing prevents us from even getting total masterpieces like Sega Rally. I'd pay full $70 MSRP, whatever it would take!!!
Licensing is always the problem. I don’t know why they felt so compelled to license real vehicles in the first place. I’ve never been “oh I wouldn’t have played this game but hey a Ferrari”…only time I’ve gotten excited for licensed cars was the latest Gran Turismo…and I just wanted to see how close to perfect they got the GTI interior because that’s what we used to drive
There's still no real guide on how we can play these in the description :(
Sega lately has been a bit touchy from what I have been told about teaching people how to do this. Maybe join my Discord
dear lord what is happening in that intro
the game has a little bit of gonzo crazy taxi vibes
Everything is going on all at once lol
I agree that sega made the best arcade racing games but my all time fav racing games are the project gotham racing games, especially pgr2
Those are legit great games for sure
I'll play it once we get 4/3 microled displays 😎
Might me a minute
Graphics hold up incredibly well. Did this have a US Arcade release? I wanna emulate this bad boy
It did have a US release. Seemingly limited though. I just always play the Japanese version when I can just because I find it more charming
I was wondering if you planned to visit the Thunder series (Hydro Thunder and Artic Thunder) at all? I know they home ports but no one to my knowledge has done an extensive breakdown of these games
Not any time soon. They really don’t slow into any series. But one day :)
"Video games are just meant for one thing: Fun! Fun for everyone."-Satoru Iwata. SEGA knew.
So much fun to be had
@@VideoGameEsoterica Lindbergh providing the good cheese again.
Just enough cheese to be delicious
The gameplay description sounds a lot like Hotweels Unleashed, Eecept for the too easy part.
Haha have yet to play that
I love this game! I just wish someone would iron out the few glitches the Teknoparrot version has.. and being able to upscale it from the original 480p in-game without messing up the graphics. It's a really fun game, classic Yu Suzuki! OutRun 2 is still the GOAT ofcourse, but SEGA Race TV belongs in the SEGA top 10 racing games for sure.
At least we can still play it. Cabinets are not very common sadly. And yes...no spoilers but I think I say in the OutRun 2 video "GOAT"
Love the variety of licensed vehicles.
It’s got a solid set of cars for sure. Probably why it never got a port sadly
For me...
#1: any Hydro Thunder Game
#2: any Sega racer
#3: any Mario Kart arcade port
Not gonna lie...don't love Hydro Thunder
@@VideoGameEsoterica who doesn't! Emulated H2Overdrive? At first I hated it because you realize that in the arcade no kid would ever beat it unless they had time and money to waste, plus it has a code system for saving information..once I learned how to properly play it and upgraded the boats, I loved trying to find all of the quickest ways to finish the race. You also learn that shortcuts might trick you into thinking their actually shorter.
I’ll give it another shot. I’ve only ever played it in arcades and it didn’t really impress me but I’ve been wrong before!
agree with Sega overall making the best racing games.
They are the kings of the genre
Come on Sega. Release an arcade racing game collection. Say ten games. This, Scud Racer, Daytona, Sega Rally, Outrun, Hang On...... So many to choose from. Follow it up with a sprite scaler collection featuring Afterburner, G Loc, Galaxy Force, Space Harrier etc and a fighting collection featuring Virtua Fighter, Fighting Vipers etc. There is money to be made and good will to be earned 🙂
Maybe they’ll watch this series and do it! (They won’t lol)
@@VideoGameEsoterica Yes. Wish they would. They have dropped games into the Yakuza series. Why can't they just do a compilation ? Megadrive collection, Dreamcast collection and Sonic collections have been done. This wouldn't be hard and I'm sure liscensing good be renewed or shared like Konami with the Turtles collection
Maybe one day Sega will make us happy. It’s just not today
@@VideoGameEsoterica Come on. It's nearly Christmas 😅😉
Sega gives you coal
© 2023? How long have I been asleep? 😁
Hahaha I rescheduled this
@@VideoGameEsoterica enjoyed the video. Have never come across this game. I agree that Sega made the best arcade racing games, though. I especially adore Scud Race, Virtua Racing, Daytona USA, Sega Rally, Rad Mobile, and Outrun
Some of those will be showing up eventually. The 3D ones :)
@@VideoGameEsoterica Scud Race never getting a home port is criminal! 😁
Sega has more awesome arcade racing games in arcades then they do at home
May I know how you play it at fullscreen? I just get a tiny 640*480.
I’d have to look at how I did it. Been a bit
@@VideoGameEsoterica Thanks for your time and effort.
👍
always thought this game was fun, like a power drift version of outrun 2, altough I think it's a kinda slow compared to other Sega racers. rarely see anyone being postive about it tbh. curious what you think of r-tuned
You'll have to wait for the R-Tuned video for deep thoughts...but love the mechanics, can take or leave the theme
@@VideoGameEsoterica i see, mechanically it's definitely better than STV IMO, but yeah the theme of STV is so much better! Seems as if Initial D was preferred overall in the marketplace, since its that lineage that Sega decided to continue...
Enough Initial D games exist…they could start a football team
I really wish Sega would re-visit Outrun, and give us Outrun 3, or Outrun 2023/4 or whatever name.
Last Outrun was the awesome OutRun 2006 Coast 2 Coast, that was a blast, but it's now 16 years old, and starting to age.
Maybe even re-visit their past library and give us modern Scudrace, Sega Rally, Daytona, etc... so much potential, but Sega seems disinterested, and a bit lost as a company.
Oh that would be the dream. A new OutRun would be amazing
Would 18 wheeler be considered a racer? You are racing to the finish ahead of your rival but that's about it.
I haven’t decided yet. We shall see.
I've never even heard of this
I'm a bad Sega fan
"this has not been ported" is something you're going to be saying a lot in this retrospective
Haha basically 75% of videos I think
Especially if it's Sega. Less 1% of their arcade games seem to have been ported
Sega is allergic to money
Licensed cars so they can't even do a collection now.
Pretty much
The game is now not working on Teknoparrot, shaders broken ;(
Bummer they broke it?
@@VideoGameEsoterica i think so.
mind to try it?
I’ll see what it does Sunday when I have more working time
@@VideoGameEsoterica did you try it?
I did. It was fine for me. I updated and nothing seemed off
Do you need a beefy PC to handle TeknoParrot? Would it run on Steam Deck?
Steam Deck COULD handle this, but currently it's not working even on Windows. Some driver issues. But it should have the horsepower to easily run most of the Teknoparot stuff. Personally I did this on a 12900K and a 3090 and thats OVERKILL AF. I think the GPU was at like 15-20% utilization
@@VideoGameEsoterica cool, thanks for the info!
NP. I am doing a whole series on emu setup guides + other fun tutorials and weird stuff for Steam Deck and Teknoparrot was one of the first ideas I had. Just not ready yet
@@VideoGameEsoterica oh that's great, I've never even set up TeknoParrot even on my PC. On an unrelated note, I was thinking of adding some original Xbox games to my Steam Deck. I know the compatibility of Xemu isn't wonderful, but it might be worth adding some of the games that do run perfectly.
Do it. It’s hit or miss but some games are great. I’ve tested basically every emulator so far to make videos on and it’s all pretty damn impressive. Only PS3/OG Xbox are iffy and that’s not steam deck…that’s just the current state of the emulation
Man this looked awesome! I've _never even heard of this,_ too - freakin' Sega. Gotta love their racers, but gotta _hate_ the fact that they kept making so many with stupid licensed cars instead of knock-offs; they can *never* re-release the vast majority of them, or give them wide releases on consoles. SO ANNOYING. Why are the only long-lived racing series' in games today exclusively sim titles and the "simcade" junk that obnoxiously keeps trying to claim the title of arcade racers. Yeah, right. When you look like _Sega Race TV,_ Forza Horizon and NFS, *THEN* you can call yourself an arcade racer, jeez.
I predict this Sega racing series of yours is going to be both fantastic as all your other stuff and also _very_ frustrating to watch then, as we're just assaulted with loads of games Sega let wither and become forgotten instead of building into any kind of proper series or dynasty, all because of their stubborn love of licensed content and keeping arcade games locked to the arcades. They're a real nightmare for legit game preservationists too, not just goons like me who want to play this stuff on their Playstation or Xbox :)
Man, I'm gonna go buy an arcade racer right now to support the indie devs still making these things. Been meaning to nab Inertial Drift, Anti-Graviator and Warp Drive anyway...
Really looking forward to this series, VGE! Thanks for bringing Sega Race TV to our attention too - this seems obscure even to the people who already know of stuff like SCUD/Sega Super GT! SO looking forward to your look at R Tuned!
Oh the playlists is gonna be like 60% stuff that never came home. Tis the way of Sega. It’s just heartbreak after heartbreak!
